Pablo Picasso painting "La plage à la Garoupe I" for the film "Le mystère Picasso". Nice, Studios de la Victorine, 1955.

At the Studios de la Victorine in Nice in 1955, a shirtless Pablo Picasso is absorbed in painting "La plage à la Garoupe I" for the film "Le mystère Picasso". He leans forward, his torso angled towards a palette on a pedestal, dipping a thin brush into the mixed paints. A lit cigarette is held in his left hand and a watch is visible on his wrist. Behind him on an easel, the large work-in-progress reveals its complex layers of drawings affixed to a dark, abstract canvas.
